Last Monday morning, July 11, the president held an interesting press conference on why we need to deal with our budget issues. Then Steve Scher took calls from callers on the topic. The link above is that hour on KUOW with Steve.
It was a lively discussion. At minute 20 for three minutes, Randy from Marysville (!) spoke at length about how it's lazy people looking for handouts that are the root of our budget problems in this country. Needless to say, he really got my Irish up. I waited patiently and took some notes, and then at minute 37 for about three minutes I got to talk to Steve about (1) how much I love his show, and (2) why Randy from Marysville is an ugly American, and (3) how to fix our budget :)
We shouldn't forget that Bush, et al.'s underhanded handling of the economy for eight years is what put us into the ditch and it will take some time to get us out.
It's always fun to talk to Scher, his show is one of the best on the radio, and the calls were all interesting, albeit sometimes frustrating, and woefully misguided.
